Core. Presents: Sophia Djebel Rose

The Franco-Moroccan artist Sophia Djebel Rose distills a singular music that is a rare treat to experience. Blending folk, noise, experimental song, and avant-garde poetry, she invents a new language of her own. Born into the perpetual exile of a childhood divided between two countries, Sophia has turned wandering into her greatest strength. As a modern poetess, she now takes the stage alone, armed with an electric guitar and an harmonium, to sing of the beauty of the lands she has ceaselessly left behind. Her live performances intertwine Mediterranean music with ecological and feminist themes, all of it carried by a syncretic approach that merges into a mysticism meant as an invitation to break the course of things and to reclaim one's strength.
